Synopsis
A hacktivist and a cat café owner decode the friend zone in this romantic comedy from the author of Undercover Bromance.
Alexis Carlisle and her cat café, ToeBeans, have shot to fame after she came forward as a victim of a celebrity chef’s sexual harassment. When a new customer approaches to confide in her, the last thing Alexis expects is for the woman to claim they’re sisters. Unsure what to do, Alexis turns to the only man she trusts—her best friend, Noah Logan.
Computer genius Noah left his rebellious teenage hacker past behind to become a computer security expert. Now he only uses his old skills for the right cause. But Noah’s got a secret: He’s madly in love with Alexis. When she asks for his help, he wonders if the timing will ever be right to confess his crush.
Noah’s pals in The Bromance Book Club are more than willing to share their beloved “manuals” to help him go from bud to boyfriend. But he must decide if telling the truth is worth risking the best friendship he’s ever had.

Review
I love the Bromance Book Club series. But so far Crazy Stupid Bromance has been my least favorite of the series. I still really enjoined it, but it just wasn’t as good as the others.
I think the reason for this is that the characters in this book were not in the original so I cared a little bit less about them. Alexis and Noah were introduced in book 2. And I have to say there are many other stories I would like to have read before theirs.
The other reason this book didn’t super do it for me, was it is friends to lovers which if you read my reviews you know I don’t like so much. And yes this one has the obligatory what if it ruins our friendship. The other thing I didn’t love, was that the book makes a point of talking about how men and women can just be friends, but then proceeds to prove that wrong.
Overall, I liked the story and the characters, though Mack really stole the show in the few parts he was in. But I just liked I didn’t love it. This book did set up the next one in the series, about the RUSSIAN!!
